    And the local Hooter's should send girls down with plates of food.

    A.) That's a short-sleeved dress shirt. Not fancy.
    B.) Those are snaps, not buttons.
    C.) I think it's denim.

    :D

    Where did I say that?

    I've discussed this before on freq's threads. I was not a ladies man by any means in my younger years. I have five brothers, and went to all boy schools from first grade through high school. After quitting college, I worked on the commodities exchange trading floor, which was about 95% male.

    Women scared me.

    But, as I got older, I got to know more women. I date more, lived with a girl for five/six years. They're just people, and so many things freq says ring true.

    First of all, confidence is about the most attractive thing in anyone -- male or female. I'm a confident guy -- so much more confident than I used to be.

    I'm in a good place in my life. I have a couple dollars in my pocket. I've traveled all over the world, and I have some go to stories that make me look charming, make people laugh, and are self deprecating.

    I can talk to anyone. And, when I'm single, I talk to everyone. I flirt with grandma's. I'll ask out girls I'm not interested in just for practice.

    And, people really do crave attention. If you listen to them, remember what they said, do some simple but thoughtful things, they will appreciate it.

    I can be very thoughtful.

    And, I ask women out. Lots of women don't get asked out a lot -- even beautiful women.

    I've dated my share of women who were "going through a divorce". All you have to do is be nice.

    Even the coffee thing does help. Coffee is a great first date. Though, a discussion of a coffee date has been how I've gotten several women's phone numbers, we almost always did something different on our first date.

    And, I'm not claiming to be God's gift to women. But I'm a pretty good catch. I'll be 43 in two weeks. I own my own business. My height & weight are in proportion. I have all my hair. I know every good restaurant in town, and like to go out. I'm a fun and young 43.

    My last girlfriend is 30, and she models. My current girlfriend is 27, and models.

    I would have been afraid to talk to either of them when I was younger. They're the two best looking women I've ever dated.

    The current girlfriend is really thoughtful. She's sexy and fun. And, she likes me. I'm a lucky guy.

    I didn't think it would take long for a Jake Roberts reference to emerge.

    From the bowels of the internet:

    "You can't handle the truth! Son, we live in a world that has motorcycles. And those motorcycles have to be ridden with girls with blonde hair. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Paul Finebaum? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Arkansas Football and you curse my needs. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know: that this wreck, while tragic, probably saved our season. And my sexual desires, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves our season. You don't want the truth, because deep down, in places you don't talk about at tailgate parties, you want me on that blonde. You need me on that blonde.

    We use words like pig & sooey. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use 'em as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself or my erection to a bunch of psychos who rise and sleep under the blanket of the very football success I provide, then questions the manner in which I provide it! I'd rather you just said thank you and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you lose some teeth and become an Auburn fan. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you're entitled to!"

    No, Moddy. Just keep it short.

    YF, you're a good guy. Please don't listen to a word freq says. He's not somebody you want to follow on Twitter.
